Abstract excerpt
Genetic risk for common autoimmune diseases is influenced by hundreds of small effect, mostly non-coding variants, enriched in regulatory regions active in adaptive-immune cell types. DNaseI hypersensitivity sites (DHSs) are a genomic mark for regulatory DNA. Here, we generated a single DHSs annotation from fifteen deeply sequenced DNase-seq experiments in adaptive-immune as well as non-immune cell types. Using th...
